It's great to see the Wolfgobbler back.
I like the way she's captured the essence of Mother Superior Salt Shaker with the vial of Christ's Holy Blood in her hand, and how Fr Pepper Shaker is cringing in fear at the church of St Vinzenz.

you really know your Bible.
How she's painstakingly done the wallpaper: painstaking.
Didn't just whip it up with some text about the tongue.
But who cares about art when you have a high rank?

It was the wallpaper that intrigued me most as an art critic (critic of everyon'e art besides my own, that is).
Those Lilies of the Valley aren't there by accident, and were no cut-&-paste job. There's a hint of modernity in that wallpaper, almost a reference point to computer-generated wallpaper art - how the tips of the lilies appear to have a double meaning - and almost look like computer cursor arrows on a screen.
If only people would study real art at a more in-depth level like I do (when I'm not drinking, smoking, watching TV or attending to my undies, and yours), the world would be a much nicer place.
What amazes me most about the Wolfgobbler's works is how she dispenses with text and lets her original works speak for themselves. This is one of my favourite works of hers. (Second only to the G-Train).

I couldn't have done a work like this and I never could.
Short little attention span.
The tenacity to see it through is a fine trait and to do it all for that liilte gag with the knife.
It's a pity art has only been around for thousands of years. Unlike other more interesting and fulfilling pursuits.

Women don't just think with their brains. They have a decisive advantage over males by having wombs. THis is a little known fact (which has never been expressed digitially or pixally, but women can think with their wombs). According to ancient research, dating back thousands of years, women's wombs have a longer attention span than a man's mind. This is not to say the mind, brain and womb are not body connected. God forbid. But how else would they be able to put up with what closely resembles a Yobbo beer-gut for so long without applying to go on Australia's Biggest Loser. Winners. Women? Winners.

Jack the Ripper is the only man I've ever know who had a womb.
